DIY air filter replacement

This might sound stupid, but where are the two engine air filters located?

I figured that they would be inside the two tubes that run out of the sides of the engine. I removed both of them, but there is nothing inside of the tubes?

I want to just order the filters online and do it myself. Dealer quoted me at approx $150 for air filter replacement.

www.oempartsdirect.com if you have a 500 put in part # 112 094 00 04 you need 2 of these

take engine cover off, inside theose "black boxes" are your filters, get yourself a set of starbits from the local autoparts store or order online, then giggle at how what took you 10 minutes in labor only cost you 50 bucks
